The protagonist, a disgraced whistleblower living in hiding, finds his life upended when he encounters a mysterious tourist. Drawn together by a shared sense of curiosity, they uncover a conspiracy that binds them closer but makes them targets. As they navigate a world saturated with deep fakes, doxing, and revenge porn, they must confront powerful forces determined to protect their secrets.

A Timely Exploration of Power, Privilege, and the Human Cost of Prejudice

Discarding Decency explores the themes of power, privilege, and the human cost of prejudice in a world consumed by culture wars. The novel delves into the rise of corporate influence and the erosion of critical thinking, raising questions about the value of morality and the consequences of speaking truth to power.
